Nakuru RFC head coach Kennedy Njoroge has made a double change on his squad ahead of Tisap 7s at the Eldoret sports club in Uasin Gishu.
Missing the action is the team’s forward Amos Obae and Victor Shipata who are set to be replaced by Brian Kimani and Henry Dembah.
Nakuru RFC retain key names
Javan Otieno who was impressive in the Christie 7s retains his place in the squad alongside Samuel Mwaura, Christant Ojwang, Gilbert Ochieng, Barry Opondo, Phillip Okeyo and Brian Kimani.
Habbakuk Ouma, youngster James Macharia, Paul Lusesi and Victor Matiko are also in the squad. The team will still be under the captaincy of Hannington Wabwire.
Nakuru had their best performance in Christie 7s three weeks ago and will be hoping to carry the form to Eldoret.
